Summertime fun

These fun sidewalk chalks are a great way to get crafty with your kids, and wrapped in cellophane, they make great gift and party favors!

If you want to make chalk sticks, use old toilet paper tubes lined with wax paper. Cover one end with duct tape and fill the tubes with the chalk mixture. These tubes are large, so they may require an extra hour or two of dry time.
